Will IFTTT Integration return?

[A_Tyrrell]

Hi there,

I wanted to create, what I thought was, a simple automation. 
If my Nest doorbell detects a person after 1am, the Hue Spotlight in my porch will turn to 100% brightness. 

But there’s no IFTTT integration at all since Google took over!

Any word on if this will return, or is there an alternative solution. 

I feel like more and more I should just replace all my Nest devices for Ring.

Actually it looks like I can do this inside the Google app 😂

I’m still interested if IFTTT will return though

Well if you could support in setting up an automation as mentioned above it’d be appreciated. 
I tried using the Google Home app and it didn’t work.

My guess is you are not aware of Google Home Script Editor. Along those lines I am not sure why it is not promoted more. 

Anyway...

home.google.com 

left menu - automations

Is there a specific reason you are leveraging IFTTT for that vs doing it in Google Home via Script Editor?
